The management of lower-grade gliomas (Diffuse low-grade and intermediate-grade gliomas, WHO II and III) is largely based on surgery followed by radiotherapy. Recent studies showed that lower-grade glioma patients with IDH wild-type (IDH-wt) and TERT promoter mutation (TERTp-mut) had dismal clinical outcomes. These results suggested that current treatment strategies are not adequate for this subtype of lower-grade glioma. The present study aims to examine the efficacy and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide followed by adjuvant temozolomide for lower- grade glioma patients with IDH-wt and TERTp-mut.
This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of PF-06840003 in patients with malignant gliomas.
The standard therapy of glioblastoma (GBM) consists of gross total resection followed by focal irradiation to the tumor bed with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ). The association of valproic acid and TMZ during radiotherapy improves survival of GBM. Preclinical studies suggested that doxorubicin had a strong antineoplastic activity against human gliomas. Moreover, some studies showed that the continuous infusion of anthracyclines in patients with solid tumor ensured a better safety profile compared with bolus administration. Based on these findings, the purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of prolonged administration of doxorubicin in combination with radiotherapy, temozolomide and valproic acid in pediatric and adult patients with newly diagnosed GBM and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG).
Although bench data and retrospective studies have provided a promising picture of the possible influence of anesthetic technique on the risk of tumor progression and patients mortality, current evidence from RCTs is inadequate to show whether the type of anesthetics might influence tumor progression and patient survival.There are many thousands of patients with a cancer diagnosis undergoing surgery every year, and in the context of biological plausibility, it should lead to the urgent undertaking of RCTs to further evaluate the association between the anesthetic management and patient outcome.
This is a phase II study to determine the immunogenicity and efficacy of a vaccine composed of tumor associated long synthetic peptides mixed with Montanide ISA-51 VG administered with polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid - poly-L-lysine carboxymethylcellulose (Poly-ICLC) and bevacizumab in adults with recurrent glioblastoma.
This is a phase 1/2, uncontrolled, open-label, multicenter study in patients with recurrent and relapsed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, glioblastoma, or grade III or IV glioma.
This research trial studies qualitative, qualitative, and functional studies over the first year in measuring immune system response in patients with brain tumors. Measuring the number of immune cells, whether these immune cells work correctly, and response to 2 vaccines at several times during the first year of treatment may help find out how active the immune system responds to fight infection and cancer.
This phase II trial will investigate the efficacy and safety of the addition of Optune (Tumor Treating Fields [TTFields] Therapy) to bevacizumab for patients with bevacizumab-refractory recurrent glioblastoma.
Current therapies for diffuse, intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) provide very limited benefit to the patient. The rationale for the use of Antineoplaston therapy in this protocol study derives from experience with subjects from prior Phase 2 studies and Compassionate Exemption patients treated with Antineoplaston therapy at the Burzynski Clinic. This study is designed to analyze the efficacy and safety of Antineoplaston therapy in five separate DIPG patient cohorts, which are defined by age and prior therapy. This is a two stage study with 20 patients in each cohort being enrolled in the first stage and an additional 20 patients being enrolled in the second stage, if pre-determined efficacy endpoints in the first stage are realized.
